SNEEZYC34 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 So i remember the previous owner of my stagea told me the rear had stock suspension, now i just thought he had no idea seeming how low the rear was. The rear has felt really "saggy" lately so last ngiht i thought i would have a look. So it seems yeas, i had stock rear suspension, but it is totally stuffed, im able to push the suspension down with my hands =( Seeming i didnt wanna drive it with such bad suspension i have now put good stock suspension in the rear, and it looks terrible lol. So now to figure out what i want to do, i dont wanna guy new coil over for the rear as i have a lot of other stuff i have to pay for at the moment, dont know weather to leave it like this, or try and find some rear suspension thats lowered and good condion????

GH05T Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 also whats in the front, make sure it matches. are they just lowered springs alround with shot rear shocks? if so just put new shocks in. dunno why you would run coilovers in the rear and not the front?

Ben C34 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 It's funny that since you sold me your rear coilovers a mate of yours and now you could have used them! Took a little work to free up the lock nuts but they work all good! Unlucky....

GH05T Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 this is a little odd. why ever run coilovers on the front and not the rear? just take the coilovers out, use stock stuff which someone is surely selling cheap (sold mine sorry) and buy a propper set of matching coilovers when the money is available.
